KUNSEI - SMOKED SENCHA AKAMI NOODLES

The first course featured on the OMZO Kaiseki Bento, is the Kunsei - with the Smoked Sencha Akami Noodles. This course features smoking as a technique to highlight the the Akami.

Made with the Senaka fillet of the HonMaguro Bluefin tuna, providing the highest quality of Akami. It is cold smoked with roasted Sencha green tea then thinly sliced it into long strips that mimics noodles. It is then dressed with a unique beech and oak smoked soy sauce brewed in Tatsuno City, Hyogo Prefecture, in Japan. Inspired by a Japanese stable of cold Udon noodles with white sesame sauce, we dress the smoked Akami noodles on an emulsion of Roasted Golden sesame paste produced in Osaka, and Vermont Grade A Maple Syrup for a touch of sweetness. Then finished off with chives and schimi togarashi giving you a tickle at the tip of your tongue to balance of the smokey sweetness of the sesame sauce.

SUNOMONO - HIJIKI AND GOJI SALAD

The Sunomono is typically a light vinegar based salad, that can cleanse and open your palate.

This course is packed with plant based proteins; our colorful salad is designed to provide a wide range of psydonutrients through Hijiki seaweed and almonds dressed a kick of acidity from premium brown rice vinegar produced in Miyazu, Japan known for its malty, smokey delicate flavor. This sunomo is perfect for those with a sensitive stomach.

Omzo Bento is a gourmet delivery service meticulously curated to provide a healthy kaiseki experience at home.

The menu will be built around a Bento Box, Japanese trays that are divided into 9 individual small compartments to form a single serving. According to Su-Jit Lin writing in the Allrecipes blog, “Bentos are inventions of convenience for the recipient, but they're often a labor of love from the maker.”
